Love is the voice under all silences, the hope which has no opposite in
fear; the strength so strong mere force is feebleness: the truth more
first than sun, more last than star.

I have fallen in love with Love herself.She is the mother of 10,000
lovers.She is the mistress I meetdeep in the lily.I go into the
forest and find herlying in the trillium, waiting, waiting.When anyone
says, "I love you,"they mean Her.We are the garden.She is the
Spring.

If I was to translate the enlightened state down
into human terms, I'd have to describe it as contentment. Being nobody,
going nowhere, needing no reason to exist. To the ego, that probably sounds
a little boring, and of course to an ego it is. But then again, there's
really nothing for the ego in enlightenment. In enlightenment, the egoic
false self is rendered an irrelevant illusion, a mask, a character that
nothingness wears while pretending to be human.

Not only is there nothing in enlightenment for
the ego, the ego is really nothing but a defense against enlightenment. I'm
not saying that ego is bad or evil because its not. I'm saying that ego is a
social and personal construct and therefore an illusion. But there's nothing
wrong with an illusion. A painting is an illusion; a movie is an illusion; a
good novel is an illusion. The problem isn't with illusion; the problem is
with the emotional attachments and addictions of ego.
